This is bordering on off topic - but I'm having a cold weather starting problem with another LBC that uses a dual Zenith-Stromberg setup with the FASD - I think that means "fast action starting devic

It's been my experience that the ZS carbs are neither good cold weather starting carbs nor are they fair weather friends. If you have an SU option, go that way. YMMV Rick -- Rick Lindsay Diamond Geos

Being a UW Husky alum it goes against my nature to agree with a Coug, but I concur that the Z-S (or D-S if you prefer) is not a bad cold weather starter. I have a '76 MGB with the Z-S, but the thing

My vote: the SU's I replaced my Z-S have given me no trouble. What means cold? My temp went from 70-42 F (this is NJ, not the barren cold north) and it starts just as well. (Haven't had 12F yet to tr

I'm having a problem with the 73B. Idles fine and runs great at upper RPMs (above 2500). But when I give it gas below 2000-2500 RPM, it stumbles (e.g., when I'm accelerating from a stop). The valves

Blake, by all means stick with the SUs. Even my worn SUs have held up quite well. The secret to SUs is to set them and don't fiddle with them. It's when you start to fart with them, that you get into

No. Bad idea. The replacement parts are probably just as bad as the original ones. Most of the things that need to be replaced in an SU can be had new for about $20 per carb. Get the Haynes SU carbur
